Jerry Maguire (1996)

Continuity mistake: During the final game, before it starts there's a shot of a player warming up and throwing a ball. When the camera follows the ball, for a brief second we see that the bleachers are empty, but immediately afterwards several shots of the stadium show it's packed with people.

Jerry Maguire (1996)

Visible crew/equipment: Dorothy leaves Jerry at the hotel convention and when he opens the door a big white screen used for lighting is reflected on the door. It can't be a reflection of the building, since the car is surrounded by passers-by.
